What's the latest in people's lives?

[Nickswitz]

Yeah, It's just girls having problems with their bfs and i end up trying to help, but it makes me worse off. But if I don't I still feel bad about not helping, so I help.

Well, I just saw some of those little SmartCars here in Paradise. They are cute! And tiny! Like a pregnant roller skate! Like in the new Pink Panther movie with Steve Martin.

With the turning circle of the Carpathia and the cargo capacity of a baby ant?

That's the one. No protection in a crash at all, might as well wear roller skates and slap a license plate to your butt!

They're actually becoming somewhat commonplace around me, but my area includes some of the highes-volume Mercedes dealers in the Northeast (and the HQ of Mercedes North America.) I don't think they have as cow-like steering as Reliant implies, but they scare me - if you hit something in a SmartCar, you're only hope is to hit it hard enough not to limp away.

I have the headache from hell!!!!

I had the first weekend in nearly a year that I was JUST able to sit and home and relax. I so rarely get time just to myself anymore.

Oh, and my "lunch" friend came home with me on friday

[mwhittington]

You know, "lunch" is actually a great cure for headaches, what with all those endorphins.

[Mark]

I know. She wanted to have "lunch" again today DURING our lunch break, but my boss had way to much crap for me to do to get away

[IanKennedy]

Like in the new Pink Panther movie with Steve Martin.

That's not a movie, it's an abomination. Those who took part in it's production should be hung, drawn and quartered.

[Teaos]

Come on Ian, tell us what you really think.

[shran]

And fake the alcohol? Clearly you've never met me (I'm known as the beer man round these parts).

And I am known as Tea man around my parts

On another note, I finally have internet in my room!

[Reliant121]

Woooo!!!

as a side note to the American population, with these small cars, dont expect luxury. cause they arent. Near on a road a few meters from here, there are a series of short but very high bumps almost like a cow grate or whatever they are called. Going over that is certainly not pleasant. You will feel things. but thats not what this kind of car was produced for. Its cheap to buy, cheap to run.

[stitch626]

Nowadays, cheap is high up on my list, as long as the car doesn't break when I apply the gas and brakes. And honestly, I prefer hard shocks to those loose suspentions. If I want to feel like I'm on ther ocean, I go on a boat.

Then this would be perfect. But it will cost a fair bit to import it. Although it wouldnt take too long to make up the difference, with the 20 MPG difference between the Aveo and the Matiz.
